Series One 1988
Series Two 1989 (?)
This series, written by Marcus Berkmann and Harry Thompson, was set in the bizarre world of Felchester Rovers, Britain’s one and only all-communist football team. Alexei Sayle starred as midfield maestro Ricky Lenin; among his team-mates were Stevie Stalin (Andrew McClean) and Terry Trotsky (Keith Allen). Kenneth Wolstenholme, the ex-football commentator, made regular appearances as his fictional counterpart, Frank Lee Brian.
